Gathering beside the space shuttle Endeavour, they’ve formed “Astronauts for America,” a nonpartisan coalition of over 100 ex-NASA astronauts, who see voting as the modern equivalent of a space mission — requiring unity, teamwork, and shared purpose. With a nationwide campus tour kicking off on the anniversary of Apollo 11’s moon landing, they’re urging citizens to reclaim their civic duty, drawing on their experience that in space, politics fade — only the mission matters. Their goal? To bridge divides, defend democratic norms, and inspire a generation to participate in shaping America’s future.
